Ed & Fred Flea

Ed & Fred Flea is a hilarious and entertaining little book. The flowing rhyme is easy to read and the pictures contribute meaning and humor. Kids laugh at a grumpy voice for Bad Fred, the “Abandon Dog!” tick, the weasels lined up for medication administration, and the chicken’s spotted eggs. Read-alouders enjoy the humor and the vocabulary plus an added bonus of a moral at the end: mean, selfish, dishonesty leads to misery. Ed & Fred Flea is a must-read!

I am a speech-language pathologist. I have 25 years of experience working in varied settings including schools, hospitals and private practice. I specialize in literacy and early intervention.
I am passionate about empowering communities, children and caregivers to be excellent communicators. Reading, writing, listening and speaking are powerful skills worth nurturing. I love helping people implement research-based techniques to maximize personal growth and reach individual goals.
Curiosity about what tools and information exist, how families use books and what additional information they need and want drives me. I search for great books and information in hopes of understanding and contributing to the growth of the field of emergent literacy and family empowerment.
